You move an icon-sized rect around on the screen and click when you get to what you want "ICONized." Well, actually it turns what is in the rectangle into hex codes. I guess then you could stuffhex or something after that. Regardless, all editing in McSink is done in the clipboard, so anything "hex"ed can be pasted just about anywhere. --chris
